Stoke-On-Trent to Stafford

18 miles (29 km)

Head through Staffordshire along National Cycle route 5 on this fine cycle ride.
You start off at the train station in Stoke-on-Trent and head south to Stone along the Trent & Mersey Canal. Highlights on this section include passing the Brittania Stadium, home to Stoke City FC and a pleasant stretch by Barlaston Park.
At Aston-by-Stone you leave the canal and head to Stafford on quiet country lanes. The final traffic free stretch takes you along a dismantled railway line before finishing near the train station in Stafford.
